Who We Are
Barrow Hills is a lively, aspirational school for girls and boys aged 2 to 13.
We welcome children into a warm community set in an extraordinary woodland setting. Across our 33 acres, we harness forest school, eco-projects and adventurous education to promote sustainability, resilience and a deep connection with the natural environment.
Our specialist subject teachers bring a wealth of knowledge and use cutting edge technologies to deliver a curriculum that fosters critical thinking, creativity and future readiness. Curiosity and confidence drive high academic standards from Early Year Foundations Stage for our younger pupils to excellent Common Entrance results for our Upper Prep leavers.

Through our House system and the provision of high-quality pastoral care, children build friendships, develop empathy and learn how to lead with kindness. Our generous co-curricular programme offers rich opportunities in sports, arts, leadership and outdoor education. Our charitable ethos and and dedication to service we ensure pupils can make a positive impact on the world.
Barrow Hills pupils are prepared for greater things in their futures; each year they progress to their senior schools of choice at 11+ and 13+, many with scholarships in academics, sport, drama, music and the arts. As we are part of the Bridewell Royal Hospital family of schools, pupils also benefit from the option of a seamless assured place scheme to King Edward’s Witley.
